@catturd2 Make the games 10-15 minutes total. They don’t play hard until time is almost up. And you could play the whole tournament in a weekend.

Look over here.
Football is too big to fail.
No one admitted to knowing the biggest non-secret on campus.
The AD wasn’t going to let integrity and institutional values get in the way of winning.
Did I miss anything?

From a very well connected friend: He says Trump is on an experimental Alzheimers drug & that is why his hands look like they do, from repeated jabs from needles/IV’s etc. Its why he obsessively talks constantly about his repeated cognitive tests, because he knows he is a mess.

@LosTalksPats After his summer, how is anyone taking him seriously? I’ve always liked him, but I have a hard time thinking that players aren’t quietly question any lessons on how to treat other people, etc.

#Patriots HC Mike Vrabel speaking to the rookies on the importance of appreciating the staff members in the facility:
“Tell me somebody that helped serve your food. $100 bill help refresh your memory? I bet tomorrow we’ll go introduce ourselves to the men and women in that cafeteria that are busting their ass to make sure that you guys got something to eat, Caleb. Say, ‘Hi Jackie, I’m Caleb. It’s nice to meet ya,’ or ‘Hi Dre, I’m Caleb. It’s nice to meet ya.’ Okay? Make sure we do that fellas, that s**t’s important.”

NEWS: Maine Democrat Ashley Webb, who said he would not "lie" or "deceive" people, claims in Reddit posts that he "ovulates" and has a monthly period, but because he has "external male parts" instead of "the proper hole," the period blood comes out of his anus.
Despite being karyotyped as XY, he says he's "pretty positive I am the XX type." He also believes he has female "internal organs," although CAT scans have turned up nothing.
Colonoscopies have also failed to validate a connection with a supposed hidden uterus.

@GOODBROTHERLYZM No, bro was wrong. Did he really think a competitor was going to let him just take off inside the foul line and dunk? Maybe in this 🐂 💩 they call AAU now. But not in the NBA, even if it’s just summer league. And the response was more absurd. That’s why the league is soft now.
English
Bro wasn’t wrong. Bout time someone responded to fouls like this the right way.

@ClayTravis Please tell me their 15 minutes is up. I really can’t believe people pay to watch a cross between Chippendales and sub-A level minor league baseball players.

What is the audience for a fake baseball team doing bad musical dance song ensemble pieces? Legit, I’m asking. Are there lots of sports fans clamoring for fake sports teams to do bad Broadway musicals? This seems like an audience of zero.

@GuntherEagleman That’s absurd. Was it disrespectful when Magic and Bird became the face of the league instead of The Logo, Oscar, Wilt or Kareem? Times change. Life goes on. And let’s not act like those that came before were idols. Name the first five WNBA MVPs. Without looking it up.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar says calling Caitlin Clark the face of the WNBA is disrespectful to the players who paved the way.
Do you agree?

@Abbyvampatella That means the “former NBA” skill coach (LOL) can’t charge $$ to teach non-athletes how to dribble around chairs to throw up a floater. Most of these kids’ moves should end with a jump stop and a bounce pass or five seconds of pivoting. But that’s not a sexy investment.
English
My final thoughts from the first July live period:
I legitimately saw a travel every other possession this weekend- whether it was on the catch or after picking up the dribble.
Coaches, trainers, whoever… PLEASE don’t skip out on fundamentals. PLEASE work on footwork. 😅😅

New, w/@RealTonyGarcia: Ex-UM president, AD Warde Manuel had "evidence of cheating" by football program and hid it from NCAA, per ex-coach's lawsuit updated in June.

Youth sports are becoming a luxury instead of an opportunity.
$5,000 for a 14-year-old to play club volleyball.
A “speed dating” recruiting process where families scramble to commit to a team.
$10 per person just to watch two 8-year-old basketball games.
At what point did youth sports become an industry instead of a place for kids to learn, compete, and have fun?
We’ve created a system that often rewards a family’s wallet more than a child’s passion.
There has to be a better way.

@dandakich Actually Nicklaus was going to play football at OSU. Hayes knew him and said no way. Played basketball for a year instead. Was actually really good guard in HS for a slow white kid. Tiger was just a golfing machine who then found the weight room.

Dude…. I’m a freaking 5 handicap and never practice… have a few beers etc
Tiger Woods/Jack Nicklaus couldn’t begin to play another sport
It’s a fun activity
Tom Gillis@tcgillis
So I’m curious? Are you saying Golf isn’t a serious sport? Interesting take. I’m sure Tiger Mr. Nicklaus and many others would beg to differ. Check yourself in Dan it’ll be good for ya.

@saniyafatma1278 Very simple. If it’s on the floor, it’s yours. Take it, bag it and keep it or pitch it. Let them learn to value possessions literally one at a time. Take care of one thing, you might get a new or one old one back. And grounded in that cesspool for a week during summer no phone.

Parents... I need some real advice here. My 13-year-old's room looks like this EVERY DAY. SINGLE. DAY. Dirty clothes everywhere, trash piled up, and somehow even the clean laundry gets thrown away like it means nothing. I'm at the point where I refuse to keep cleaning up after him... but I also can't stand watching my house turn into a complete disaster. So what do we do in this situation? Do I hold the line... Or step in before it gets worse?

@TreyWallace Nice touch getting lawyers from East Lansing and Columbus. Must not be any strong legal firms in Happy Valley.

Also, there is a federal lawsuit by former assistant Chris Patridge against the University of Michigan, Warde Manuel, Santa Ono, Tony Petitti, and UM Board of Regents.
Amended complaint says Ono and Warde Manuel knew of sign-stealing scheme before 2023 seasons ago, thanks to evidence found on computer of former assistant Matt Weiss, and hid from NCAA.

Michigan spent over $11 million on Jenner & Block law firm to investigate its athletic department regarding almost 6 years of scandals, NCAA investigations and one involving the FBI
This was always going to end with people losing their jobs, or some type of “early retirement”

Former Michigan assistant Chris Patridge alleges in lawsuit that former President Santa Ono instructed staff to not report findings of “sign stealing” scheme to compliance, NCAA or any other party
Evidence came from investigation launched by Michigan hiring outside law firm looking into former assistant Matt Weiss’ computer crimes
